For God's sake, be carefull out there!
I recieved this figure for Christmas. It cost . It was number 977 as the first 1000 or so made would be sold in the United States. Only 2002 were ever made. It is a really nice figure, with a working parachute. On the down side, It falls apart pretty easily. The mike piece on the side of the helmet, the little actual mike fell off, along with the pin to hold it on. Thanks god I didn't have a hard time finding it again.

If I were careful i'd be in the Coast Guard!
This is the basic upper body. Check out the helmet, harness and oxygen mask. |
The name is Bond, James Bond
Though this figure wears a 9mm Berretta in a HALO shoulder holster, as apposed to a .380 PPK that Bond carries. Notice the cord that wraps around the pistol as well. It is designed for extra security when jumping at 30+ Thousand feet above sea level

Oh No! Somone packed my chute wrong!
The parachute harness originally came with a white tissue rolled up inside the chute compartment to holdshape and such. To open up the back I had to untie a white cord that was used to hold it together. I did untie it and take the tissue out, and tried to put the actuall chute in, but I lost the white cord, and need to buy another one :( |
So how big is your gun?
Pretty sizeable actually. It's a M-4 (or 727) Carbine with a Trijicon Scope and a short M203 Grenade launcher. The figure did not come with the grenades :( But I have some from BBi's "OWL" figure

Face Me!
The Headsculpt is really nice and extremely real looking. He stairs straight ahead like a Vietnam veteran and you can see how he's shaved. |
That's not a knife! .........THIS IS A KNIFE!
The knife is pretty cool. It's the same one used for the SEAL Helicopter Sniper that BBi has recently put out. It is partially serated and has a little indent for something..(can opener?)

I'm lost!
This figure isn't. The green boxy Olive Drab (OD) thing is a compass. On the back of the compass is padding that is shaped to keep it facing the head of the user. It is strapped to the chest strap of the parachute harness |
I've got a "flare" on you
Here are two white flares secured together. Even the writing on it is real, just shrunk, pretty cool. Likewise, the orange wind goggles are the same color and type actually used by SEALs. Look closly at the first picture on the homepage, and you can see this type of goggles on the SEAL that is squated.

Weapons Dry!
He also comes complete with 3 extra mags, secured by mag clips tied to string, secured to a carabiner (The carabiner is dicast metal). This makes a total of 4 magazines. On the pistol harness there is also an extra mag pouch. |
Full body
Check for the frame pack that is secured to him. It is hooked to the parachute harness, then the arm straps are strapped around the legs of the figure. The pack really opens up, but I probably won't do it. He also has a set of kneepads, and his oxy-tanks.
